Do take a look at the FAA advisory Circular A.C. 43.13 in the wood repair section. You can download it from the FAA web site. It won't give you the complete answer, but it does give you the proper methods for making scarfs and general wood construction and repair.

We are not comfortable with a taildragger and would like to fit a tri- wheel under carriage. Where can one find such and perhaps plans to fit them? The previous owner had to cut the plane behind the cockpit to get it out of his garage, and I wonder if someone has some views on the best way to join the two parts. The frame is of wood.
